Fire the Washington War Party

Fire the Washington War Party

by | Feb 22, 2025 |

President Donald Trump gets a lot of things wrong. Chief among them is his crazy plan to ethnically cleanse two million Palestinians from the smoking ruins of Gaza. But he also gets some very important things very right. Trump managed to end the longest war in US history, Afghanistan, by cutting off the money that fueled this absurd conflict. Without Trump’s forceful intervention, this conflict could have dragged on for another decade and cost yet another $2 trillion. None of the generals or...

Is Trump Risking His Life with Russia and Ukraine?

Is Trump Risking His Life with Russia and Ukraine?

by | Feb 21, 2025 |

If you want to get a sense of what President Kennedy was up against with his Peace Speech at American University a few months before he was taken out, just look at the reaction to President Trump’s friendly overtures toward Russia in the last few days. The mainstream media is up in arms over Trump’s actions. Multiply that reaction by about 1,000 and you’ll get a sense of what Kennedy was facing with his attempt to move America in a similar direction. The first thing everyone should be aware of...

How USAID Assisted the Corporate Takeover of Ukrainian Agriculture

How USAID Assisted the Corporate Takeover of Ukrainian Agriculture

by | Feb 21, 2025 |

A recent essay titled “The Real Purpose of Net Zero” by Jefferey Jaxon posited that Europe’s current war against farmers in the name of preventing climate change is ultimately designed to inflict famine. Jaxon is not speculating on globalist motives; he is warning humanity of a rapidly unfolding reality that is observable in the perverse lies against cows, denigration of European farmers as enemies of the Earth, and calls by the WHO, WEF, and UN for a plant-based diet...

Hate For Trump Has Now Expanded To Musk

Hate For Trump Has Now Expanded To Musk

by | Feb 20, 2025 |

Don't miss Rep, Duncan at the March 22nd Ron Paul Institute Conference! The hatred in the hearts and minds of many on the Left is just astounding. Having spent a lifetime closely following and being involved in the American political scene, I have never seen anything as extreme as the bitter hatred and anger directed toward Donald Trump. Now, just as love expands so that a parent can love a second and third child as much as the first, apparently political hatred can expand, too. While the...

The Feds and Their Own Bribery

The Feds and Their Own Bribery

by | Feb 20, 2025 |

Normally, when the government asks a judge to dismiss criminal charges against a defendant, the judge will happily do so. This does not occur frequently, but occasionally, the government will reevaluate the strength of its own case and conclude it cannot prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt and to a moral certainty. What happens when the government believes it can meet that standard, but for reasons having nothing to do with the strength of its case, it seeks a dismissal? Can the...

DOGE Cuts Bureaucracy — Sound Money Can Bury It

DOGE Cuts Bureaucracy — Sound Money Can Bury It

by | Feb 20, 2025 |

There are times when self-reflection becomes a necessity. We Americans became that which we seceded from. Recall that one of the complaints in the Declaration of Independence against King George III was: “He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harras our people, and eat out their substance.” Bureaucracy! We broke free of bureaucracy and ended up creating our own. Our own grew to be much greater than anything King George III could have dreamed of. New...

Rep. Chip Roy Bill Would Take Away Coronavirus Shots Manufacturers’ Liability Shield

Rep. Chip Roy Bill Would Take Away Coronavirus Shots Manufacturers’ Liability Shield

by | Feb 20, 2025 |

Despite the health problems experimental coronavirus “vaccine” shots have caused many Americans, United States law has prevented victims from obtaining from the shots’ manufacturers compensation for the harm suffered. That situation could change. A bill reintroduced on Tuesday by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) would tear away that special shield from liability so people harmed by the shots can receive compensation. Among its provisions, Roy’s Let Injured Americans Be Legally Empowered Act (the LIABLE...

USAID Falls, Exposing a Giant Network of US-Funded ‘Independent’ Media

USAID Falls, Exposing a Giant Network of US-Funded ‘Independent’ Media

by | Feb 19, 2025 |

The Trump administration’s decision to pause USAID funding has plunged hundreds of so-called “independent media” outlets into crisis, thereby exposing a worldwide network of thousands of journalists, all working to promote U.S. interests in their home countries. In late January, President Trump—along with help from the head of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk—began implementing sweeping changes to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) on the premise...

‘Listen Carefully it’s Actually Much Darker’: How the Left is Framing Free Speech as a Front for Fascism

‘Listen Carefully it’s Actually Much Darker’: How the Left is Framing Free Speech as a Front for Fascism

by | Feb 19, 2025 |

The defense of free speech by Vice President J.D. Vance in Munich, Germany, has led to open panic on the left in fighting to maintain European censorship and speech criminalization. The response of the American press and pundits was crushingly familiar. From CBS News to members of Congress, Vance (and anyone who supports his speech) was accused of using Nazi tactics. It is the demonization of dissent. In one of the most bizarre examples,  CBS anchor Margaret Brennan confronted Secretary...

US ‘Democratic’ Allies Are Becoming Increasingly Authoritarian

US ‘Democratic’ Allies Are Becoming Increasingly Authoritarian

by | Feb 18, 2025 |

U.S. officials have a long history of portraying Washington’s allies and clients as democratic, even when their behavior is blatantly authoritarian.  Such cynical hypocrisy was at its zenith during the Cold War, but it is surging again.  A similar trend is evident with respect to U.S. interference in the internal political affairs of other countries through such mechanisms as the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the National Endowment for...

Secret Terror Blueprints for US NSC to ‘Help Ukraine Resist’ Exposed

Secret Terror Blueprints for US NSC to ‘Help Ukraine Resist’ Exposed

by | Feb 18, 2025 |

Explosive leaked documents reviewed by The Grayzone show how a shady transatlantic collective of academics and military-intelligence operatives conceived schemes which would lead to the US “helping Ukraine resist,” to “prolong” the proxy war “by virtually any means short of American and NATO forces deploying to Ukraine or attacking Russia.” The operatives assembled their war plans immediately in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, and delivered them directly to the...

Can We Really Cut Half of The Military Budget? You Bet!

Can We Really Cut Half of The Military Budget? You Bet!

by | Feb 17, 2025 |

The wailing sound you heard last Thursday was the chorus of the Beltway warmongers shrieking in despair at President Trump’s suggestion that there was no reason for the United States to be spending one trillion dollars on “defense.” “…[O]ne of the first meetings I want to have is with President Xi of China and President Putin of Russia, and I want to say let’s cut our military budget in half. And we can do that, and I think we’ll be able to do that,” the President told reporters. With this...

Will Donald Trump Punish the UK for its Meddling in Two US Presidential Elections?

Will Donald Trump Punish the UK for its Meddling in Two US Presidential Elections?

by | Feb 17, 2025 |

Ok. Sorry for the lengthy article, but the substance is important. If the Brits are laboring under the fantasy that they enjoy a special relationship with the United States, it is time for my British cousins to wake up. My thesis is simple: Donald Trump and Kash Patel know that British intelligence officers and assets played a key and enthusiastic role in trying to destroy Donald Trump’s campaign for President in 2016 and are likely to hold the UK accountable. In my...

Netanyahu To Rubio: Let’s ‘Finish the Job’ Against Iran

by | Feb 17, 2025 |

Trump's Secretary of State Marco Rubio was in Israel where he met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday, after which they gave a joint address before reporters in Jerusalem. This is Rubio's first Middle East visit since becoming America's top diplomat. He and Bibi called for the total elimination of Hamas and the return of all the remaining hostages, following three being released on Saturday, including an American dual citizen. Importantly, Netanyahu declared that Israel...

Foreign Aid Isn’t

by | Feb 14, 2025 |

Here are two personal stories about foreign aid. Some 20 years ago when Slow Food asked me to be part of the U.S. delegation attending the International Slow Food Convivium in Turin, Italy hosted by Carlo Petrini, I went with Michael Pollan. Every time I wasn't speaking, I attended presentations by a delegation from an African country. Every single one started with something like this: "We have plenty of resources. We can feed ourselves. You western countries need to leave us alone. Your cheap...

The Cost of Freedom: Confronting Military-Industrial Profiteering and Restoring Fiscal Integrity to Preserve Our Republic

by | Feb 14, 2025 |

Our government is drowning in multi-trillion-dollar financial corruption and debt while a fear-peddling national security state has reached deeply into the personal lives of each and every American, justifying its existence through endless wars cooked up by a deep state which has become the most corrupt marching band and chowder society in American history. That deep state of permanent governance, entrenched media, think tanks, NGOs, and multi-billion-dollar government contractors,...
